This volume contains the proceedings of the International Conference
on Group Theory, Combinatorics and Computing held from October
3–8, 2012, in Boca Raton, Florida.

The papers cover a number of areas in group theory and
combinatorics. Topics include finite simple groups, groups acting on
structured sets, varieties of algebras, classification of groups
generated by 3-state automata over a 2-letter alphabet, new methods
for construction of codes and designs, groups with constraints on the
derived subgroups of its subgroups, graphs related to conjugacy
classes in groups, and lexicographical configurations. Application of
computer algebra programs is incorporated in several of the papers.

This volume includes expository articles on finite coverings of
loops, semigroups and groups, and on the application of algebraic
structures in the theory of communications.

This volume is a valuable resource for researchers and graduate
students working in group theory and combinatorics. The articles
provide excellent examples of the interplay between the two
areas.
